A doting dad has created a cartoon series starring his daughter who has Down’s syndrome.

Just Jessica is the work of 59-year-old psychiatric nurse Fred Wills Sr., and follows the life of his youngest child, Jessica.

Fred from Connecticut, USA, has drawn cartoons of all his children over the years, and started drawing the Just Jessica cartoon around 18 months ago.

He draws the cartoons in the evening – often reflecting on the events of the day – and posts them on the microwave for Jessica to see in the morning.

He told the Today Show: ‘Every morning, it’s the first thing she looks for… She loves them.’

And the series has proven a hit not only with his daughter but with the wider public too.

Writing on the Just Jessica Facebook page, Wills explained how the name of the cartoon came about: ‘Our daughter Jessica is truly a “blessing from God”. She is a unique snowflake and “special” person. However, in her own words she is “Just Jessica”.’
